About this property

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Big Happy Place

This unit is located in one of the best 4 season resorts in Ontario. Enjoy swimming in the lake, launch a canoe/kayak or fish from the dock. For a leisurely hike or bike ride the Cataract Trail is only minutes away or explore the many outside areas within the park. Stroll and sit by the memory pond and observe nature or visit the turtle pond. This is a friendly, safe, comfortable place to stay for all ages. A lovely community to enjoy a truly Canadian summer getaway. There is also an indoor heated pool and outdoor pool both are saltwater. Lots of resort activities to get involved in, like Bingo, Pickleball, Darts, Cards, and Live music events. Basketball court, Soccer Field, Volleyball and Baseball diamond.
